Catalogue Guns for Generations CATALOGUE GUNS FOR GENERATIONS GUNS FOR GENERATIONS 4 EDITORIAL For 268 years now, Germany’s oldest manufacturer of hunt­ ing firearms – J.P. SAUER & SOHN – has provided hunters with guns boasting uncompromising quality, utmost preci­ sion and timeless beauty. This winning formula has inspired as many as eight generations of huntresses and hunters thus making Sauer one of the world’s leading manufacturers of hunting guns. Our unique heritage is no matter of chance, it is built on the honest work of responsibly acting people who are proudly committed to their roots, always strive for continuous innovation and preserve what is best. When I am out hunting with my side by side shotgun from 1898, every mechanical and artistic detail makes me feel the passion and dedication, with which our ancestors have lived up to these values and laid the foundation for the phi­ losophy of Sauer & Sohn. Now as back then, Sauer hunting firearms are not a temporary phenomenon – they are guns for generations. In this spirit and on behalf of the Sauer team I wish you a pleaseant read and always good hunting.

SAUER & SOHN proudly presents the refined distillation of concentrated practical knowledge and 21st century technology that has been built upon the foundation of nearly 270 years J.P. SAUER & SOHN history. The flagship of our product range epitomises no more and no less than the essence of our historically successful bolt action rifles. Like no other, the S 404 corresponds to the highest demands in terms of safety, precision and flexi­ bility – today and in the future. It yet remains, what you neither can deny nor conjure up, only see, feel and sense: a timelessly beautiful bolt action rifle that has grown over generations and that is made for the generations to come. This is perfection in its most elemental form or briefly: a real Sauer. 9 SAUER 404 – THE NOBLE DIFFERENCE INGENIOUSLY SIMPLE – SIMPLY INGENIOUS The Sauer SUS universal key appears at first glance to be no more than a detachable fore­end sling swivel. Upon removal it is revealed to be a super stable German­made folding allen key that is essentially responsible for the individualisation of your Sauer 404. As an onboard tool that is attached to the rifle sling, it can neither be forgotten nor get lost – thus providing utmost flexibility at all times. 16 CALIBRES – ONE PROMISE By introducing the Sauer 200 in 1985, J.P. SAUER & SOHN has laid the foundation for the nimbus of unsurpassed precision. The key technology: Three clamping bolts in the receiver hold the barrel tension­free and six massive bolt lugs positioned directly behind the chamber lock the bolt. For more than 30 years now, this has been the formula for the easy interchange of barrels and calibres while providing match grade precision at the same time. A promise that will persist in the S 404 – for generations. GUNS FOR GENERATIONS 10 SAUER 404 – THE NOBLE DIFFERENCE ADJUST, KNOW, SHOOT An adjustable trigger featuring four different trigger pull weights that are individually adjustable, is the perfect answer to the physiological effect chain of know ledge and acting. Would you ever go without the magnification scale on your variable rifle scope? Crisp 550, 750, 1000 or 1250 g (1.2, 1.6, 2.2 or 2.7 lb) leave no doubts that you are programmed for success already prior to taking your shot. IT IS YOUR GUN AFTER ALL Every successful competition shooter knows: Only the optimum position of the shooting finger on the trigger blade provides proper trigger pull and controlled shooting without the risk of missing the target. With an 8 mm (0.3˝ ) adjust­ ment range for length of pull and a left­to­right swivel range of 5 degrees, the S 404’s extra­wide trigger blade guaran­ tees each shooter optimal contact to reliably hit the target. SAUER 404 11 SAUER 404 – THE NOBLE DIFFERENCE MANUAL COCKING SYSTEM WITH SAVVY The ergonomically perfect metal cocking slide on the bolt shroud allows the rifle to be cocked both comfortably and extremly silent. By pressing the button with the thumb, the cocking slide silently slides back into the uncocked position. In addition it is also possible to load and unload the rifle in the uncocked position: To do so, simply slide the cocking slide 2 mm forward and safely open the bolt. PLAY IT SAFE AND GO FOR MODULAR Meeting your friends after hunting – do I leave the rifle in the car? Danger ahead? Not with the S 404. In just two sim­ ple steps the bolt head can be separated from the bolt body and conveniently disappears in your pocket. Firing the rifle therefore is totally impossible. Changing the bolt head for different calibres is just as safe and easy. This means: safety and modularity are combined the smart way. GUNS FOR GENERATIONS 12 PERFECT ALLIANCE The S 404’s specially designed Sauer Universal Mount (SUM) combines an extremely low and elegant profile with abso­ lute shooting stability and return to zero. This ensures that the shooter can focus on the target at lightning­fast speed and does not need to lift his head in order to use the full potential of accuracy. The SUM is available for all common mounting rails as well as for all ring diameters from 1 inch to 40 mm. SIMPLY PERFECT The perfect magazine lock must effectively prevent the unintentional unlocking of the magazine in any situation. The perfect magazine lock must be positioned where the magazine is operated – directly on the magazine button. The perfect magazine lock must be unlocked at lightning speed so that a full magazine is instantly available when the situation becomes critical. The perfect magazine lock is called the Sauer MagLock. SAUER 404 13 S 404 ELEGANCE Confidently stylish, serene and masterful. The superior con­ cept of the S 404 paired with a deluxe grade 5 walnut stock offers a timelessly beautiful bolt action rifle of technical and artistic perfection to the true afficionado.

This is how ultimate precision arises SAUER 404 15 S 404 STUTZEN SELECT No other bolt action rifle epitomises traditional hunting as tasteful as a Stutzen. Yet no other bolt action rifle holds similar challenges when it comes to constant precision in all climate zones and over decades. What until recently has been close to the impossible, Sauer & Sohn has solved by integrating a one­of­a­kind Carbon Spine technology – an ultra accurate and under all conditions ultra reliable hunting rifle in the classic design of a full­stock beauty. The carbon sandwich construction in the fore­end avoids twisting and warping of the wood in wet conditions and/or during temperature changes. This ensures constant precision over generations without any compromise of design. GUNS FOR GENERATIONS 16 SAUER 404 17 S 404 SELECT The S 404 Select boasts an individual premium look. The incredibly realistic laser grain on the classic walnut stock is an absolute eyecatcher and the perfect entry into the luxury class of J.P. SAUER & SOHN.

GUNS FOR GENERATIONS 20 S 404 ARTEMIS Already when mounting the S 404 Artemis for the first time, this premium rifle for huntresses gives you the absolute confidence of shooting instinctively and hitting safely. It boasts a shorter stock that is optimised around the pistol grip to perfectly provide both control of the rifle and optimal trigger contact.

Reprinted from the American Society of Arms Collectors Bulletin 69:24-31 Additional articles available at http://americansocietyofarmscollectors.org/resources/articles/ The English Double Rifle M.D. (Chip) Beckford Reload, reload; it seemed like hours as I emptied the shells out of my rifle and slammed two 450/400 nitro express cartridges into the breech. I could see the muzzles of the professional's double rifle coming up, and said "I've got him" and fired the third shot. As I recovered from the recoil and aimed again, the Cape Buffalo was falling head over heels into the long grass. This was the trip of a lifetime, and I had just shot my first Cape Buffalo with my English Double Rifle,' a Hellis 450/400-31/4" nitro express. The English Double Rifle is one of the guns that when you see one, conjures up images of Africa and dan- gerous game. There is a romance associated with the Double Rifle of the "Great White Hunter" saving his client's life with a well-placed shot at a matter of feet. their trips and experiences. It is from these accounts that The English Double Rifle has spanned the last one we see the need of the hunter for fast, reliable firearms hundred and fifty years and has evolved from the percus- capable of stopping big and dangerous game animals.

  • Hall of Fame Andy Partridge
    Hall of Fame Andy Partridge Andrew John Partridge (born 11 November 1953) is an English singer, songwriter, guitarist, and record producer from Swindon. He is best known for co-founding the rock band XTC, in which he served as the group's primary songwriter and vocalist. While the band was formed as an early punk rock group, Partridge's music drew heavily from British Invasion songwriters, and his style gradually shifted to more traditional pop, often with pastoral themes. The band's only British top 10 hit, "Senses Working Overtime" (1982), was written by Partridge. In addition to his work with XTC, Partridge has released one solo album on Virgin Records in 1980 called Take Away / The Lure of Salvage. He has also collaborated (as performer, writer or record producer) with recording artists, including Martin Newell, with whom he recorded and produced an album in 1993 entitled The Greatest Living Englishman released in Japan as a duo album. Partridge was producer for the English band Blur during the recording of Modern Life Is Rubbish (1993). He was replaced by Stephen Street at the insistence of their record label, Food. According to Partridge he was unpaid for the sessions and received his expenses only. Partridge also wrote four songs for Disney's version of James and the Giant Peach (1996) but was replaced by Randy Newman when he could not get Disney to offer him "an acceptable deal". In the 2000s, Partridge began releasing demos of his songs under his own name in The Official Fuzzy Warbles Collector's Album and the Fuzzy Warbles album series on his APE House record label.

    Downloaded from rnajournal.cshlp.org on September 29, 2021 - Published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press Deryusheva, Talross and Gall SnoRNA guide activities – real and ambiguous Svetlana Deryusheva, Gaëlle J.S. Talross 1, Joseph G. Gall Department of Embryology, Carnegie Institution for Science, Baltimore, Maryland 21218, USA 1 Present address: Department of Molecular, Cellular and Developmental Biology, Yale University, New Haven, Connecticut 06510, USA Corresponding authors: e-mail [email protected] [email protected] Running title: Testing snoRNA activities Keywords: modification guide RNA activity, 2’-O-methylation, pseudouridylation, Pus7p, snoRNA 1 Downloaded from rnajournal.cshlp.org on September 29, 2021 - Published by Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press Deryusheva, Talross and Gall ABSTRACT In eukaryotes, rRNAs and spliceosomal snRNAs are heavily modified posttranscriptionally. Pseudouridylation and 2’-O-methylation are the most abundant types of RNA modifications. They are mediated by modification guide RNAs, also known as small nucleolar (sno)RNAs and small Cajal body-specific (sca)RNAs. We used yeast and vertebrate cells to test guide activities predicted for a number of snoRNAs, based on their regions of complementarity with rRNAs. We showed that human SNORA24 is a genuine guide RNA for 18S-Ψ609, despite some non- canonical base-pairing with its target. At the same time, we found quite a few snoRNAs that have the ability to base-pair with rRNAs and can induce predicted modifications in artificial substrate RNAs, but do not modify the same target sequence within endogenous rRNA molecules. Furthermore, certain fragments of rRNAs can be modified by the endogenous yeast modification machinery when inserted into an artificial backbone RNA, even though the same sequences are not modified in endogenous yeast rRNAs.
